[e-drug] Using ARVs in Africa

E-DRUG: Using ARVs in Africa
----------------------------

Hi Everyone,

My project is on Medicine information. I am developing a
Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) for an ARV regimen.

I need help with the following:

1. I would like to know what dosing schedules are used at
the MSF-ARV project in Khayelitsa,Cape Town, South Africa.

2. I need to know how familiar PLWHA on ARVs are with
terms like CD4 & Viral load, especially the low-literates.

3.I am looking for more information the use of ARVs in
AFRICA.(compliance,side-effects etc.) Both the public and
private sectors.

I hope to get some responses soon.

Regards,

Betty
